Gapuma Group Proudly Supports Team Ichiban at the WUKF World Championships 🥋

8th July 2025

We’re immensely proud to support Team Ichiban as they head to Malmö, Sweden, to compete at the 13th WUKF World Championships as part of the Dokan England squad.

After months of dedicated training, national competitions, and unwavering commitment, this talented group of karateka — from seasoned international athletes to promising first-timers — is ready to represent the very best of British karate on the global stage.

The championships will take place at the renowned Malmö Arena, an iconic venue previously home to Eurovision, now set to host a week of elite martial arts, sportsmanship, and unforgettable memories.

At Gapuma Group, we believe in backing excellence, discipline, and ambition — qualities that Team Ichiban embodies to the core. This marks the third World Championship we’ve proudly supported in just four years, a testament to our ongoing commitment to grassroots and elite sport alike. It’s been an honour to help make this journey possible, alongside our fellow sponsor, Indigo Car Hire.

We wish the entire team strength, focus, and an unforgettable experience in Sweden. Win or lose, you’ve already made us proud. Let’s go, Team Ichiban!
